From his 2007 album 'memory almost full' , ( c ) MPL Communications Ltd , as generously given away free with the 'Mail on Sunday last month , this is 'Only Mama Knows' , which is by far the most interesting , intense , and the least bland track on it .

I bought her 2007 album 'This Is The Life' as part of play.com's '2 for £10' offer .
She's a young Scottish singer/songwriter/guitarist ; I love the album , ( c ) Melodramatic Records Ltd/Mercury Records Ltd/Universal .
This is what , from the title , I thought would be my least favourite track but actually it's probably my favourite , Footballers Wife :
(click on play to listen)
Oh , Mr James Dean , he do'nt belong to anything/Oh he left before they could get him/With their ways , their wicked ways/Oh Marilyn Monroe, where did you go ?/I did'nt hear all your stories/I did'nt see all your glory
But the Footballers wife tells her troubles and strife/I just do'nt care in the end/Who is she to pretend/That she's one of them/I do'nt think so/And the girl from that show/Yes the one we all know/She thinks she's some kinda star/Yes you know who you are/I do'nt think so , I do'nt think so
Oh Ginger Rogers , Fred Astaire/Won't you dance for me cos I just do'nt care/What's going on today/I think there's something more , something more/And I'm gone with the wind like they were before/But I'm believing myself I think there's something more/There must be something more/I think there's something more , something more
Oh I do'nt believe in the telling of your stories/Throughout your life , there's just something unappealing it do'nt catch my eye/It do'nt catch my eye/Oh I do'nt believe in the selling of your glories before you leave this life/There's so much more to see/I do'nt believe this is how the world should be

What Women Want

My adorable cat is delighting in a midsummer-mayhem  killing-spree of baby birds and mice .
He's growing wilder by the day and seems to now be eating his prey , as evidenced by feathers and a tiny pair of birds feet in the hall this morning .
He breifly comes in about four times a day to say hello and to see if his cat food meets his approval .
But I think he knows where he's loved and 'well off' , and I do'nt think he'll abandon us entirely for the  the 'wild side of life' ( if anyones wondering , yes he was 'neutered' ) .
******************
I'm a bit less anxious though the anxiety has'nt entirely dissipated yet .  
*****************
So two scientific studies in the U.S have concluded that , as most of us know , most women are most attracted to men who display ( a ) self-obsessive narcissism , ( b ) callous , impulsive , thrill-seeking psycopathy and ( c ) a deceitful and exploitative nature .
Apparently they are genetically programmed to perceive such men as 'masculine' , and therefore a good choice of person to mate with .
But most eventually , reluctantly settle down with a boringly safe and nice-natured kind of guy .
I can maybe sort of reluctantly understand that  in the sense that I can acknowledge the possible sexual attractiveness of a 'bitch' , but would'nt choose to 'settle down' with one .
Maybe most women , and quite a few men have a propensity to be turned on sexually by someone who seems to have a callous , ruthless , exploitative streak .
Why I'm not sure . I can also see the attraction of  femininely 'submissive' women .
But basically requiring  a  close , and lovingly probably  'equal' relationship  .
